Badder Than Them

[Intro]
Why so much innocent people-dem have fi die?
I an' I don't know why
Bob Marley say, "No, woman, don't cry"
Dis one is a message from King Selassie
Oh, to tell all di people-dem, say (Watch out)

[Chorus]
Dem a gwaan like dem bad
An' dem no know, say, God is badder than dem
Weh mi tell dem, mi tell dem, say
And all dem take people life
Dem no 'member, say, dat God a watch dem
Weh mi tell dem, mi tell dem, say
A when di roll is call over yonder, mi say, God will smite dem
Beca' mi know, say, God is badder than dem
All murderer, dem have fi end up in a hell (Yeah!)

[Verse 1]
As it was in di beginning
So shall it be in a di end
A from you take people life, is a big sacrifice
'Cause a then your soul is condemn (Weh mi tell dem, say)
Do you remember Major Worries?
Do you remember mi friend?
Dem kill di man call Pan Head an' dem kill Dirtsman
An' we nah go hear dem again (Weh mi tell dem, say)

[Chorus]
Dem a gwaan like dem bad
An' dem no know, say, God is badder than dem
Weh mi tell dem, mi tell dem, say
And all dem take people life

Weh mi tell dem, mi tell dem, say
A when di roll is call over yonder, mi say, God will smite dem
Beca' mi know, say, God is badder than dem
Ruffer than dem, an' tuffer than dem

[Verse 2]
Cah, God is badder than dem
Badder than di wickedest murderer-dem
Badder than di soldier in a di military-dem
Say, di gun an' ammunition weh di wicked-dem send
When God a come, mi say, dem jus' cyaan defend
It no right fi take a life unless your life, it depend
An' then you have to pray to God to be forgiven
In the Old Testament, di Bible recommend
Weh di Cat-a-Nine a tell dem, say

[Chorus]
Dem a gwaan like dem bad
An' dem no know, say, God is badder than dem
Weh mi tell dem, mi tell dem, say
And all dem take people life

Weh mi tell dem, mi tell dem, say
A when di roll is call over yonder, mi say, God will smite dem
Beca' mi know, say, God is badder than dem
Ruffer than dem, an' tuffer than dem (Yeah!)

[Verse 3]
So mi say, please, oh Jah, mi say, please, tell mi why
When you live in a di ghetto an' a try get apply
Now you have some little man weh start get red eye
Waan' pick up di gun fi try kill I an' I
But we are God-bless youths, son of King Selassie I
True, di valley of dead, it must guide we by
Dat's why mi say we have fi live modify
Cah, all murderer, say, in a hell a goin' fry ('Cause)

[Chorus]
Dem a gwaan like dem bad

Beca' mi know, say, God is badder than dem
All murderer, dem have fi end up in a hell (Yeah!)
